Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use Windows PowerShell, with explicit references to Windows paths, tools (certutil.exe, Notepad), and screenshots of Windows Explorer. There are no Linux or macOS equivalents provided for certificate conversion, editing the hosts file, or running the Python script. The instructions assume the user is operating in a Windows environment, and Linux alternatives are not mentioned or linked, except for a single 'Next steps' link to Linux VM CLI commands.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS instructions for all steps, including certificate conversion (e.g., using openssl), editing the hosts file (/etc/hosts), and running Python scripts.
  • Include sample commands using bash/zsh shell syntax, with Linux file paths and environment variable settings (e.g., export VAR=value).
  • Reference Linux tools (e.g., nano, vi, openssl) alongside or before Windows tools.
  • Add screenshots or descriptions for Linux environments where applicable.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility and provide guidance for users on non-Windows systems.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer bash alternatives and clarify any OS-specific differences.
